You died to save me, I promise you a lifetime

Chapter 70 Fortune tricks people

General's Mansion.

The next morning.

Zhao Jingchen and his group arrived at the general's mansion martial arts training ground on time.

At dinner time, Zhao Jingchen and Mu Yunge talked in low voices while eating as usual.

"Ge'er, I received a message after returning home last night. Someone in the palace had heard about the Imperial Aunt's return to the capital. He got really angry and dispatched most of the Dragon Shadow Guards to intercept her."

Mu Yunge was shocked. "More than half? Approximately how much?"

"There are more than 600 Dragon Shadow Guards."

"That means we have dispatched more than 300 people to intercept the Princess. What should we do?

The eldest princess and you are the backbone of our Great Yan, and you cannot fall.

Now, because one of you has retreated and the other is poisoned and on the verge of death, neighboring countries are emboldened to start a war."

Seeing Mu Yunge's anxious face, Zhao Jingchen patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "The imperial aunt will be fine. There are only about 300 Dragon Shadow Guards, and they can't do anything to her."

Mu Yunge opened his mouth in shock.

The Dragon Shadow Guards are already very powerful, but more than 300 of them can't do anything to her. It seems that the eldest princess is an extraordinary person.

Thinking of this, he blurted out.

"More than three hundred Dragon Shadow Guards can't do anything to her? Could it be that the Princess has some magical power?"

I saw the person in front of me, looking at me with big curious eyes.

Zhao Jingchen couldn't help but stretched out his hand to scratch her nose bridge, "What are you thinking about in your little head all day long?

Where do supernatural powers come from in this world? To outsiders, supernatural powers are nothing more than skills acquired through untold hardships.

The Imperial Aunt doesn't have the magical powers you mentioned. She had some abilities when she was young, but now she's old and can't fight anymore. She's more majestic and intimidating."

"Why is that?"

Zhao Jingchen lowered his voice again, "My aunt has a team that can compete with the Dragon Shadow Guards, called the Black Armor Guards, which was given to her by my grandfather for self-protection.

The only people who know about this, besides the Imperial Aunt, is me. The wishful thinking of that person in the palace is doomed to fail."

Mu Yunge's eyes lit up when he heard this. "That's awesome! It's a shame that ordinary people like us can't have such a team.

Otherwise, I will also form a women's national defense team, called the Red Armor Guard, to kill those destabilizing elements from enemy countries who attempt to cause trouble on the border, so that they dare not easily invade."

Zhao Jingchen listened to her excited and bold words, smiled and kept it in mind.

"If that person fails to intercept us, he will surely become enraged and humiliated. He will simply kill us to silence us. With no evidence left, even if the Imperial Aunt returns to question us, it will be of no avail."

Mu Yunge narrowed his eyes. "He's actually capable of destroying Prince Zhan's mansion. Oh, and why hasn't the eldest princess returned to the capital in the past?"

Zhao Jingchen corrected him, "Yes, but they blocked the General's Mansion from contact with the outside world, so you didn't know about it.

In the past, the Imperial Aunt also returned to Beijing, but it was more than a month later than now, and is expected to arrive around June 23rd."

Mu Yunge suddenly became excited.

"June 23rd? What a twist of fate! If you had waited just five more days, just five days, you wouldn't have lost your life because of me, and perhaps nothing would have happened to the General's Mansion."

Zhao Jingchen gently patted the back of her hand and said soothingly, "Don't worry about whether it will cause trouble or not. I am willing to accompany you to the underworld."

"You are the War King. If you wait a few more days until the Princess returns to the capital, you will most likely be the Supreme Ruler of Great Yan. Why would you do that for me?"

Zhao Jingchen looked at Mu Yunge's changing emotions, and was afraid of scaring her away, so he just curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

"I didn't think too much about it at that time. I just wanted to save you."

Mu Yunge didn't know what to say. After eating a bun, he said sullenly, "This time, I will never let you make the same mistake again."

After saying this, he bit a piece of bun angrily and asked, "Have you sent anyone to keep an eye on the situation with the princess?"

At this moment, Zhao Jingchen felt as sweet as if he had drunk honey.

Every word she said was full of concern and care for me, so everything I did was worth it.

"Yes, they will promptly report any progress. I am ready to face the Dragon Shadow Guards coming out in full force to raze my palace."

"There are over 200 Dragon Shadow Guards if we send them all out. Do you have that many people? If not, the secret guards and the women's team from the General's Mansion can all stay in the palace and do our bit to help."

"Don't worry, I have enough manpower!

Over the years, I have also secretly cultivated a group of forces that are no less powerful than the Dragon Shadow Guards. Starting today, they will all be transferred back to the palace.

The palace is an iron wall. Even if they mobilize the entire city's imperial guards, I am fully prepared."

Mu Yunge was silent for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, "Since their interception is destined to fail, then an attack on Prince Zhan's mansion is likely to happen. I have a plan."

Zhao Jingchen looked up at her and listened to what she said next.

"While the Dragon Shadow Guards are attacking the palace and the palace is under weak guard, we should go into the palace and find evidence that Zhao Hongyi poisoned that person, so that he won't destroy the evidence and deny it until his death."

This situation is really possible. Once that person is bedridden, the third brother will definitely destroy the evidence immediately.

He then put all the blame on that person for the assassination and poisoning, leaving the imperial aunt with no way to deal with him.

Zhao Jingchen only thought about it for a moment before nodding, "When the time comes, I'll find someone to pretend to be me, and I'll take you and your girl who knows poisons with me to find it."

Mu Yunge shook his head repeatedly, "It's not enough for the three of us. An Su and I are not very good at martial arts. If we get into trouble, it will be difficult to escape. You can take Ling Feng with you."

"Okay! It's settled.

It’s just that the person in the dream seemed to be bedridden at the end of May. Now everything has happened earlier. Will he also be bedridden earlier? "

"I don't quite understand what you mean?"

"I'm just wondering if the Third Brother and Concubine Lin would give him other medicine besides the Golden Elixir in order to move things forward?"

"Are you talking about poison? Probably not. The poison is too obvious. There's no point in us guessing now. We'll know after Ansu goes and sees it."

Zhao Jingchen picked up breakfast for Mu Yunge in a good mood.

"The attack on the palace won't happen that quickly. We have to wait until the Dragon Shadow Guards find the Imperial Aunt and the others, and if they are defeated, they can report back. This round trip will probably take about ten days, which means the end of April."

"Then let's take advantage of this break to practice martial arts." Mu Yunge quickened his eating pace.

Zhao Jingchen finished the food on his plate in a few bites, stood up and followed her.

"Ge'er, you don't have to work so hard. Haven't you noticed that your martial arts skills have improved significantly over the past few days?"

"Really? Why didn't I feel it?"

Zhao Jingchen waved at her and said, "If you don't believe me, let's fight and you'll know."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead in attacking Mu Yunge. When he got close to her, he changed his fist into a palm and slashed towards her face.

Mu Yunge dodged and swiftly counterattacked with his palm. The wind created by his palm made Zhao Jingchen's clothes flutter.

After the two fought back and forth for ten rounds, Zhao Jingchen jumped away and called a halt.

"How is it? Have you already passed ten moves?"
